I can't see Durant ever wanting to go to the Lakers. It's not even to do with the Raptors having a good chance, I just can't see him wanting all of the cameras and lights, which is literally the opposite of his personality, and playing with a broken down overpaid Kobe, prelobably Melo/Love, and nobody else.
I'm feeling Russ to the Lakers though. UCLA connection, chucker, might have Love, etc.
